Organizations are finding ways to cut through the noise in Washington, even when they can't bring groups on Capitol Hill.
About this event
Grassroots advocacy professionals face a conundrum. With record funding proposals being debated on Capitol Hill, there has been no more important time to help policymakers understand why your issue deserves to be a priority. Yet, the pandemic has made it harder than ever to reach decision-makers through traditional means.
Join us for a conversation of leading grassroots advocacy professionals who will share how they have cut through the noise. They will address popular questions, such as:
- What are the most effective ways to reach policymakers and their staff in today's environment?
- How can technology help grassroots advocates connect with policymakers, especially when your grassroots advocates are busier than ever or lack reliable high-speed Internet?
- What newer tools and tactics are worth piloting?
- What are the best ways to measure and report on success to leadership?
